My latest piece that I did for a marriage retreat. Each couple got a set. 66 glasses in total all by hand with a Dremel. No stencil or cream.

Have an event coming up and looking for a personalized touch? Plates, glasses, coasters, anything glass can be etched. Send me a post.

Hi All... I was reminded today of a tradition my family started years ago when I began etching. Each year, our neighborhood block held a cookie exchange. So... what I did was get the last names of each of our neighbors, and I etched their names and a holiday design on the center of the plate and the year that the neighbor recieved the plate. Each year, they would be invited back by some cute little invitation rhyme, that involved them bringing their cookies the following year on that etched plate to refill and take home. That way, no one had to worry about plastic bags, or containers. I only had one instance where I had to make a new plate. Our neighbor went home, and placed the plate of cookies on their table and their beautiful golden retriever thought the cookies were for him and accidently broke the plate. Lol! So cute! If you are interested in doing something like this with your family,friends, or co-workers, please let me know. 10" plates run $15-$20 and Charger size are $25-$30 depending on the artwork chosen. These would make a great addition to any holiday celebration!

Good Evening everyone! The holidays are approaching fast. I am sure some of us are having family over for the holidays and are looking for something special to use on the table. Why not a personalized pitcher for beverages? The pictures below show my Fall Leaves Pitcher that I have completed. Only item that's missing is your name. This pitcher runs for $40 which includes 1 name personalization. I am currently working on a Christmas one as well. Trying to get some examples out to you all. If you have a certain theme that you use during the holidays... let me know, we can design one especially for you! In-box me. Remember these are etched by hand, not two of them will be identical. In box me your request.

Hello Everyone! Welcome to my new page! If you don't know... I love to etch glass. I learned about it back in high school and have never been the same! I have done items for friends and family over the years and have been told, that I need to share. My etchings are not mass produced by a computer or laser etcher/engraver... all of my etchings are done by hand, which makes each one, one of a kind... If you are looking for a unique gift that can be personalized, please don't hesitate to ask. Sky's the limit... Mirrors, drinking glasses of all sorts and colors, plates, and photo frames. I am looking forward to making your Individualized by Design item!
